The system panics on /usr/src/sys/net/rtsock.c:839 and all references to ifp->if_addr->ifa_addr the pointer ifp->if_addr is invalid. some race condition occurs that releases the ifp->if_addr and when the code tries to read the next pointer a page fault occurs.... sometimes it happens in /usr/src/sys/net/rtsock.c:1581 too how to reproduce: setup (1) a freebsd 12 or 13 as a ppp-in server (man ppp) using the setup in the example at http://www.k1.com.br/crash/ppp, than go to another freebsd and using the ppptun.conf, connect to the (1) using the command ppp -ddial ppptun after several connects and disconnects, the (1) panics... sometimes the simple route get "any ppp address" is enough to panic the system. The resulting debug files of the panic is in the http://www.k1.com.br/crash
Please specify exact revisions of FreeBSD you are using as very similar problem was fixed not long ago. CC'ing ae@ just in case it's new.

It is CURRENT, you can see revision for each dump in core.txt. I don't think this problem was fixed. I suspect the problem occurs when tun(4) interfaces are going down. There are two sorts of panic, one is in nd6_dad_timer(), second is in route_output(). It seems in both cases ifnet pointer is already freed.

So, for i386 it seems it corresponds to offsetof(struct in6_ifextra, nd_ifinfo). And #define ND_IFINFO(ifp) \ nd6_dad_stop(struct ifaddr *ifa)(((struct in6_ifextra *)(ifp)->if_afdata[AF_INET6])->nd_ifinfo) Can you show the content of *dp and *ifp for 8 frame for vmcore.4? I.e.
